2926 Automatic link from log file to source code waitzmar "Log files often contain references to source code.
(E.g. compiler errors and warnings start with `file:line:`)
It would be a great help if those could be formatted as HTML links to a source code viewer.
Often the source code is already available online so that just the link has to be generated.
The `WarningCountingShellCommand` already tracks the working directory and extracts file name and line number from warnings, so we already have all the information for a proper link.
I propose to add a callback function similar to the `'revlink'` config to `WarningCountingShellCommand`, which returns an URL for a given warning. The generated HTML log file should then include this link.
Extra points when we can support the same for error messages! :-)" enhancement new patches-accepted 0.9.+ 0.8.9 steps
